It took me a while to find a laid back, clean, thoughtful, and relaxing nail environment that fit what I was looking for. I have seen all sorts of combinations of people including couples and men come in for services (something I adore about WA state as an out of town er). I love Rainier for so many reasons! Staff here is always kind and considerate. I have had them remove gels, gotten several pedicures, and a couple of manicures. They always focus on doing an excellent job and making me feel welcome. I recommend calling ahead day of for an appointment as they do fill up, especially on Fridays and Saturday's. Tucked away a bit but easy to find! When it comes to my nail needs I am loyal now to Rainier. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Let me start off by saying that ALL of the ladies are great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No problems with service and the prices are lower then alot of others in this area. I come here twice for fill and pedicare. I wasn't happy with my nail shape (almond). I also wasn't impressed with the pedicure either, it was pretty basic for a "deluxe". They dont use the liners in the foot spa, yikes! The polish on both my hands and feet could of been applied better. I'm not incredibly picky about my nails but it shouldn't look like a student or myself did them. read more

My wife and I have been coming in here for years. However, today I noticed several cameras within the establishment. One in particular that is able to be moved and panned around. I have watched this camera aim itself at me and my wife several times. This is rather concerning since there is no warnings or notices posted that we are on camera and it's makes this place or who ever is behind the really bad. To be honest, it's so concerning that after coming here for many years, I don't think I will be coming back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unfortunate because we really like all the employees here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Rainier Nails & Spa - Camera that keeps focusing on me and my wife. - Nail Salons Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

worst pedicure I have ever had. Rushed and not relaxing what so ever. Rounded off my toe nails- so they are all different looking and looks like the whole nail isn't painted. My fill was even worse. Didn't ask what shape I wanted, didn't take all the previous color off, the polish has lines in - looking like a vein with color on it, the shapes are not even, and it's super think at the nail bed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I will NEVER go back. Their customer service isn't good and the quality is extremely lacking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

She cut my toe nails uneven. I just ask for cut down & square shape. I asked her to redo my polish because it was lumpy. Then I saw my toe was bleeding. My skin was missing. I won't return read more

This place used to be really good, great quality and amazing service. Now? Horrible. This is the 3rd bad experience I've had after giving them the benefit of the doubt after the first 2. Paid $160 for my mom & I to get a pedicure + manicures. My pedicure was done in about 10 minutes lol. We BOTH explained what we were wanting WHILE GETTING THEM DONE, once they were finished we were both extremely unhappy and the nail techs laughed it off. So we paid & left because lord knows how most nail salons are about getting paid. Unless you're looking for a quick, crappy manicure, pls save your money. read more

This was actually my 3rd time, and last, visit to this location! I made appts for both my husband (manicure) and myself (fill) with Helen. Someone else did the SPEEDY manicure on my husband which turned out to be a very shoddy job! He still had dirt under his nail bed, she didn't cut his nails down far enough nor where they even. So she had to go back and re-do/correct her work. My fill: 90 minutes and 6 coats of polish later! What a disaster! My nails are so THICK with acrylic and Helen had the nerve to comment "they aren't drying"---you think? I am now trying to find another nail salon in the Puyallup area if anyone have any suggestions. read more

If you are in Puyallup, and you are looking for a GOOD nail shop, Rainer Nails is your place. I highly recommend Rainer Nails, the Customer Service is A1, the atmosphere is welcoming, the work they do on nails, feet, and waxing is amazing, and the prices are reasonable. Note: They are usually busy (a good thing), so it would be in your best interest to call ahead. 8 out of 10 times you can get in the same day. The photos are labeled, what I asked for, what I got, and then a bonus pic.. Make an appointment now, and tell them Sandy's Sistah recommended you. Rating 10 out 10 read more

I recently stopped biting my nails and asked for dip powder to protect them. I got a same-day appointment, they were very friendly, didn't comment on my short nails, and made them look very nice. The place was clean and the people were friendly. Would recommend. read more

Kelly is amazing! I brought her nails that were a week old and a disaster from a shop south on Meridian. A case of what I asked for vs what I got. She turned those nails around and offered a great conversation. My day started rough and seeing her helped me do a 180°. I will be back. read more

Even though the customer service is subpar, I started going here because one of the technicians did an amazing job on my first nail dip. However, after that, the service has been very inconsistent, and some technicians have been downright rude. When I pay to get my nails done, it is nice to have somebody who can at least be friendly. I am truly disappointed that a business would allow such behavior. I will be looking for a new nail salon. Additionally, the lady who did my nails today did not do a good job at all. The dip does not go to the base of my nails. She went so quickly that I thought she had another appointment. As a result, my nails don't reflect what I asked for or what I paid. Super disappointing! read more

I just had the WORST manicure EVER!!!!!! If I can even call it that! They didn't do anything!! I could've done a better, more thorough job at home! I was literally done in 15 minutes! Seriously?! That's including wait time and picking out a color! They didn't do my cuticles which is one of the main reasons I went! Didn't put lotion on, no massage, nothing! Literally just chopped my nails off, (and even that I had to request!) barely filed them down.. they're so sharp and coarse. Obviously did not tip and she even made an upset face at me for not tipping. Like really? You're confused why you didn't deserve a tip?! Absolutely horrible! I hardly ever get my nails done, so when I do, I really look forward to them. To get pampered and relax. This was anything but that! Save your money, DO NOT GO HERE!!!! read more

WAC 308-20-110 "(a) All tools and implements must be cleaned and disinfected or disposed of after service on each client. Tools and implements not approved for disinfection and reuse under manufacturers' specifications must be given to the client or discarded after service on each client. These tools and implements include, but are not limited to: Nail files, cosmetic make-up sponges, buffer blocks, sanding bands, toe separators or sleeves, orangewood sticks, and disposable nail bits. Presence of used articles in the work area will be considered prima facie evidence of reuse." While at this location, everything was great as far as service and quality. However, I saw staff reusing metal foot files and non-metal files on multiple people. At first, I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was actually happening. I didn't see any blue disinfecting solution for the metal tools. I did not see my nail person open a package for either foot file. I observed her after cleaning my feet with both, attempting to get all the skin off into the bowl where my feet were. Instead, she should have been throwing them away. My only assumption, if she was trying to rinse them off, is that she planned to reuse them. She was very friendly and sweet, and my pedicure came out fine, but reusing tools without disinfecting is absolutely gross. I will pay an extra one or two dollars if you just use a new damn foot file. Seriously. read more

I was scared trying a new place out since moving here, but both times I've came to Rainer I've had exceptional service. Both times I didn't have an appointment, but was seen in minutes. My shape is perfect and my nails look amazing! Thank you, you have a new regular customer. read more

I came here twice, the first time the lady doing my manicure kept complaining how I had a lot of cuticle and expected a huge tip. I chalked it up to her having a bad day and left $20 tip on $25 manicure. I just came here today, I asked if they have Apple Pay here and the lady at the front counter seemed annoyed and made me feel like I was stupid for asking this, walked away from me and said NO really loud. Then I was like fine, my daughter would like her nails done and I would like a pedicure, she raised her voice at me and laughed at me saying I don't think so! You don't have an appointment. This is it for me, I was going to pay, they treat me like I'm here to get something for free, the worst customer service I've had. Never coming to this place again! read more

Just moved to the area, so I was looking for a new nail place. I think I've found it!! Walked in on a busy afternoon. They asked if I could wait 15 minutes - of course! I immediately noticed I already felt comfortable and pleased -- it smells delightful (not like nail products), they have a very nice and calming decor with spectacular chandeliers, several TVs playing movies, and a very welcoming front desk. The ladies who work here all wear white smocks and name tags. Although I said I would wait 15 minutes, Lynn had me in a seat within 7 minutes. I just wanted shellac/gel color, and she did a meticulous yet swift job. I was in and out so quickly on a BUSY day! Rainier Nails has a new fan in me. I will definitely try this place again. read more

I've been going to this nail salon for over 9 months. It was great in the beginning . Short of having my thumb twisted really hard, as I guess I didn't turn my hand fast enough for the nail tech. one time I wasn't even talked to my last appointment at all. she just put the nail colors in front of me. no greeting or small talk. But at the end when it was time to pay and tip she got a bit chatty. Long story short, my last appointment I got nail fungus. which means there is fungus in the dip nail powder. I will not be returning. Customer beware. all customers nails are dipped inside a powder for dip nails that every customer uses. not hygienic. read more

Best place around here I've gotten nails so far! Been coming here for a couple of years now. I work in car parts and hard on my nails and they always last. There have even been times that I had to wait almost a month between fills and still didn't lose nails! read more

Lynn was super friendly and really nice, she did a wonderful job with my manicure and pedicure- I highly recommend this place!!

I went here a few weeks ago for a pedicure and had a great experience. This is a new business and they aren't fully staffed yet, but they are extremely friendly and take their time with you. I went back yesterday to get a fill and again, I was greeted with kindness and not rushed. They offer you a soda or water while you're there. I love that their gel colors are very organized and labeled clearly. Most places have their colors painted on the round swatches and they are piled in a basket that you have to dig through. They also have colors that I've never seen before! I hope this place stays consistent and clean because I will surely return here soon. read more

Close to home as my normal nail lady is in Tacoma near work. Needed some mom and daughter time, so me and my kid went in today for pedicures. Seated quickly, and when we let them know the water was too hot, they turned it down right away. I was treated first as they were busy and all other nail techs were busy. Kelly was kind and professional, asked if everything was okay, and chatted generally. She legitimately gave me a great foot and leg massage... it was delightful and long!! No rushing at all despite my daughter waiting next to me for her turn. Anne took care of my daughter, making sure ro apologize for the wait time, and stopping to make sure she wasn't rubbing too hard, and the towel and rocks weren't too hot. Yes. Rocks and towel. Massage. All for $50. Its a good deal. I'm happy and will go back. read more

This place was just ok. Took forever to get me seated even though I had called prior for a set appointment. Took forever to do my pedicure. No liner in the basin! That made me feel super uncomfortable! Will not be going back read more

I had a shellac French tip mani done in Seattle that ended up peeling, chipping and turning yellow after 2-3 days of getting them done. I usually get my nails done during my lunch break from work. After I was given a hard time when I tried calling the Seattle salon back, I decided they don't deserve my business. So I checked reviews on Yelp closer to home. I was very skeptical and already irritated by the salon in Seattle; after searching for a well reviewed nail salon, I realized that there will be some bad reviews for every store because we all have to agree, not everyone can be happy or pleased. You actually have to read what reviews people are writing in order to determine yourself if it's a valid complaint, personal problem, or an amazing place to go to. So with that in mind, I came across Rainier Nails and Spa and read most if not all of the reviews. I took my chances and chose them out of the other nail salons in the area. I went there for the very first time on April 1st for Easter. I took my daughter (9 yrs. old) and her best friend and mom. We were greeted right away even though everyone was busy. We were even directed to the color chart to choose our colors while we wait. Once it was our turn, they had us moms pair up with our daughters and sat down and got our nails done together. They took care of the girls so well and took care of my nails wonderfully. My nails lasted from April 1st to roughly April 20th without chipping. I did start peeling them myself after that though Fast forwarding, I came back to this location yesterday. I called ahead and requested for Lynn. She is so sweet and amazing! I requested for her to do my nails because the reviews on yelp showed she's artistic and can draw designs on your nails to your liking. I didn't book an appt for my daughter who was with me because I wasn't intending to have her nails done (only special occasions). But the salon squeezed her in an enjoyed painting glitter colors on my daughter's nails. Anyways, so I show Lynn a picture from google on how I wanted my nails painted....and....SHE DID IT! Her patience and perfection is phenomenal. If there was a slight mistake or too little/too much paint, she'd clean it up and make it right on her own. Such a perfectionist. Here are the photos below....I highly suggest anyone to come here if you're looking for a reliable friendly place. read more
